Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Paleogene basins in North Pakistan: Implications for the timing of closure of Eastern Tethys and India-Asia Collision
Abstract:The current investigation's goal is to time the eventual closure of Pakistan's portion of the northern Tethys rim in Kohat-Potwar Basin by using integrated bio-sequence stratigraphy and facies information. The Paleogene strata is divided into six biozones while its depositional profile resembles a distally steepened-homoclinal platform. Paleogene deposits in the Kohat Basin include two depositional cycles, two transgressive-highstand systems tracts, one lowstand systems tract, and two sequence boundaries. Thre… Show more
